Sandown Park Race 5 - Sandown Vet Clinic (275+ Rank)
VERA JAKIT (5) finds it hard to win. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing third (35.29) at this track. Form here sound including three wins. Sure to be about the mark. ATHENS AURA (1) settled down midfield and held her position to the line when finishing 4th (35.41) at this track. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. Cannot be taken lightly. TO PERU (8) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (35.45) in a Grade 5 NP at this track. In the mix. AXEL'S RADAR (2) can run a bold race on best form.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (26.41) over 460m at Geelong. Has a low draw and capable of a better result.
